Saint-Pierre-le-Moûtier (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ pjɛʁ lə mutje]) is a commune in the Nièvre department in central France.
Located between the Loire and Allier, the town has a rich and powerful history, but is a little forgotten today because of its "relative" road isolation and lack of tourist infrastructure.
Saint-Pierre-le-Moûtier is close to Magny-Cours and its racing circuit which hosted the Grand Prix de France Formula 1 from 1991 to 2008.
This bailiwick rendered to the son of the latter, Philibert de Courvol, another sentence on 25 March 1451, authorizing him to pass the Ruaux stream in his meadow of Chaulgy.
During the revolutionary period of the National Convention (1792-1795), the municipality provisionally bore the names of Brutus-la-Vallée, Brutus-le-Magnanime and Brutus-le-Moutier.
